Answer: The original number is 175
Step-by-step explanation:
The number will be represent by x .
The number is being divided by 5 so we can represent by the expression x/5.
After than is being added to 18 so we will add 18 to the expression.
x/5 + 18 .
It has to equal to 9 less than 62 and 9 less than 62 is the same as the expression 62 -9.
Whole equation will be x/5 + 18 = 62 - 9
+ 18 = 62 - 9 Combine like terms on the right side
x/5 + 18 = 53 Subtract 18 from both sides
-18 -18
x/5 = 35 Multiply both side by 5.
x = 175
This means the original number is 175.
